If you can see ink in the window, just unplug machine and plug in while holding the stop button. Sometimes errors are just held and not reset, so that plugging in power while holding the stop button will clear them.

Replaced cartriges with remanafacuter. Front

Try removing all 4 ink cartridges and unplug the power.

Close the ink cover, leave the ink cartridges out and then plug the power back in.

Once the printer boots up completely, reinstall the cartridges

Printer does not let me scan

Are you using new ink cartridges or manufactured ones? If the device in not recognizing the new ink, Try deleting it in the printers file and reinstall it. if this doesn't work uninstall the software shut down the system and restart, then reinstall the software. Many units don't see recognize cartridges that have been refilled.
